» Use a grounding strap - a coiled wire with a clip at one end and an
elastic strap at the other. Wear the strap around your wrist and attach
the clip to any non-painted metal surface of your computer chassis.
» If you do not have a grounding strap, touch any non-painted surface
of your computer chassis before you begin installation, and again
every minute or so until the installation is completed.
2.3 Installation Notes
• Computers come in different shapes and sizes. Therefore, the installation
procedures in this manual apply generally and you should compare the
illustrations here with your computer.
• A Philips screwdriver is required.
• The documentation for your computer should come in handy during the
installation. Have it ready by your side.
• If you have an existing non Plug-and-Play modem installed in your computer,
you must first un-install its modem drivers before you remove the card.
Refer to the documentation of your existing modem for details.
If your existing modem is Plug-and-Play, you may proceed to install your

ii) From the dialog prompt, select Line-Out.
To configure back to buzzer, run the same utility again and click the Buzzer option.
º Alternatively, if you have a sound card (with speakers attached), you may
want to externally connect an audio cable from this LINE-OUT jack of
your modem card to the LINE-IN jack of your sound card.
This connection is required if you want to do voice playback.
For voice recording, the microphone must be connected to the MIC-IN
Jack of your compatible sound card.
Instead of using the audio cable, you may also use a TAD cable to
internally connect your modem card and your compatible sound card
as described in Appendix C - TAD Connection. For this connection,
all devices (e.g. microphone, speakers) are to be connected to your
sound card, regardless of voice recording or speakerphone.
This completes the setting up of your modem. Please proceed to the next chapter
to install your modem drivers.

Appendix A Frequently Asked Questions
This chapter is divided into two sections: Technical Terms and Common Problems.
Technical Terms will explain some of the technical terms used in this manual.
Common Problems will discuss on the possible solutions to some of the commonly
asked questions by users. Reviewing this chapter can help you solve many problems
and often eliminate the need for telephone assistance.
A.1 Technical Terms
What is TAD ?
TAD stands for Telephone Answering Device. Most modem and sound cards
nowadays come with a built-in TAD connector. Reasons are as folllows:
1. It establishes a link between the modem card and sound card internally.
2. It allows user to leave the microphone connection on the sound card, while
the same microphone can be used during speakerphone conversion.
3. It allows user to leave the speakers connection on the sound card, while the
same speakers can be used for any modem audio output. (see ReadMe.txt
file for the Pin configurations)
What is V.90 ?
V.90 is a new standard approved by the International Telecommunication Union
for 56K analog modems. It is a compromise officially reached between the
two competing standards - X2 (from 3COM/USR) and K56Flex (from
Rockwell/Lucent).
Frequently Asked Questions

25
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
Appendix A Frequently Asked Questions
What is speakerphone feature ? (for MDP3858SP-U/SP-UE models)
During phone conversations, modem speakerphone feature allows you to speak
over the microphone and receives from the speakers. This feature is only
applicable for MDP3858SP-U/SP-UE models.
A.2 Common Problems
How do I identify the MDP3858 modem card and its drivers ?
MDP3858 has its model name printed on the serial number label located at
the rear of the card.
Alternatively, you can issue an AT13 command using any Telephony Data
Terminal application to get the driver version.
This modem is set to V.90. But why am I getting slow connections to
my ISP ?
Majority of the telephone lines and ISP are already supporting V.90 connections.
However, like all data connection, the connection is sensitive to the amount of
noise present in the phone line. Hence, only very clean phone line can get
high connection rate or throughput. You may want to check with your telephone
provider.
The modem hangs up when an incoming call is received.
Disable the Call Waiting function for the Online Service, Internet Connection
and/or communications software you are using.
When I tried to dial out, the system gave me an error message No
Dial Tone.
Check the Telephone Cable connection. If necessary, plug out the Telephone
Cable and reconnect the cable.
26
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
Appendix A Frequently Asked Questions
There are incomprehensible characters appearing on the screen.
The data, parity and stop bit settings are incorrect. Try using the default values
or check with your ISP.
Why does my modem always connect at 33.6Kbps and not 56Kbps or
V90 ?
Check with your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to ensure that they support
56Kbps or V.90 connections. You must also make sure that your modem card
is using the 56Kbps driver. For modem with Country Selection feature, please
ensure that the modem is set to your local country. To set the country select
feature, see the following question.
I am using my system with the modem card in another country. Is
there any settings that need to be changed ?

Appendix A Frequently Asked Questions
I have done a diagnostics test of my modem and there is nothing
wrong with it. However, when I use a communications software, there
seems to be an error. Why?
Windows 95/98/NT 4.0
Try to use a different telephony application like Microsoft Fax to fax a
document. If the sending of a fax is successful, then the fax function of your
modem is working fine.
Try to use Hyperterminal to dial up to a BBS. If the connection is successful,
then the data function of your modem is working fine.
Try exiting the communications software and running it again.
While testing the modem, the system gave an error message saying
that it was unable to open the COM Port.
Make sure that you have closed all communication software (e.g.
Hyperterminal, Dial-up Networking, etc.) when you are doing the diagnostics
test.
However, if there is no communications software running, do the following:
1. From the Windows taskbar, click Start >Settings > Control Panel.
2. Double-click the System icon.
3. Click the Device Manager
tab.
4. Check whether there is any
yellow exclamation mark on

To use the speakerphone feature, make sure that you have installed, connected
and tested your card as described in Chapter 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Then,
run the Communications Application bundled in your MDP3858 Installation
CD/Disk to use the speakerphone.
Can I make use of the MIC Jack and LINE-IN Jack on my sound card
for speakerphone ? (applicable to MDP3858SP-U/SP-UE and MDP3858V-U/
V-UE models only)
You can make use of the MIC Jack and LINE-IN Jack on your compatible
sound card. Use a TAD cable to internally connect your modem card to your
sound card as described in Appendix C - TAD Connection. The TAD
